HALOTRON BRX™ (2-BTP) HALOTRON™ I Halotron BrX™ (2-BTP) Amerex provides a unique solution for Halon 1211 replacement. The model 349 extinguisher utilizes Halotron BrX™ to fulfill the next generation of aviation extinguisher requirements. BrX is a low GWP and very low ODP clean agent approved for use on commercial aircraft. The Amerex model 349 is constructed of a lightweight aluminum valve assembly and cylinder. The hose provides the operator greater flexibility for utilization in tight spaces.
HALON 1211 CARBON DIOXIDE HALON 1211 is a liquefied gas, pressurized with nitrogen, which discharges as a vapor causing no cold or static shock and no impairment of the operator’s vision. This “CLEAN” agent quickly penetrates difficult-to-see and hard-to-reach areas and leaves no residue. It is recommended for protection of delicate, sensitive, and expensive computers, electrical equipment, tapes and film, automotive and aircraft engines, laboratory chemicals and equipment.
CLASS D ABC DRY CHEMICAL The Amerex “soft flow” extension applicator is particularly suited for fighting Class D fires. It allows the operator to stand away from the extreme heat and toxic fumes caused by burning material. The easily controlled, even discharge provides a non-dispersing application of the agent. The extension applicator may be quickly detached to provide a straight stream of chemical where greater range is required.
REGULAR DRY CHEMICAL PURPLE K DRY CHEMICAL REGULAR extinguishers contain a siliconized sodium bicarbonate based dry chemical with free flowing and non-caking additives. Economical Class B & C protection with lower initial cost and recharging. This chemical smothers fires in flammable liquids and pressurized gases and will not conduct electricity back to the operator.
Z-SERIES HIGH PERFORMANCE HIGH FLOW DRY CHEMICAL Z-Series extinguishers are the ultimate choice in fire extinguishers for high hazard, frequent use, and extreme environment applications. Economical-less initial cost, lower maintenance costs, and greater reliability than cartridge-operated extinguishers. Amerex Z-Series extinguishers are available with a proprietary, zinc-enriched coating that resists corrosion for up to 12 years in severely saltcontaminated environments.
